G'day All Nice vid Gazz, looking forward to upcoming episodes. Quick question, when you join an edf motor to esc do you use bullets or just solder wire to wire? Cheers Rob B

Gday Fellow Rotor Heads I have 2 things to say about Dave's machine. 1- It is one of the most awesome pieces of model engineering I am likely to ever see. Absolutely magnificent! I though Align ...

Top idea. Because I fly like crap compared to Gazz I am a bit more of an "expert". And have done quite a bit of building.... and... rebuilding. Cheers Rob B

G'day Sujit I can assure you that commercial aircraft turbines are not merely araldited on. 2 pretty serious bolts do the job on an A320. The thought of an engine breaking away completely quite f...

I intend to have the Cub complete and at the field this weekend, however as Darren is at Temora I may not fly it, depends upon the weather. If it is good oh I will fly, if not, wait for Darren! Cheer...

Gday Kev I ran up my E-Flite 46 in my mega cub yesterday. What a piece of kit!!! At 1/2 throttle I was very impressed, at 3/4 throttle I was having trouble holding the model, at full throttle.....wel...

Gday All Being one who flies a glider there is NO reason that the endurance record should be held by, of all things, a Stryker. :? I vow to endeavour to rectify this lamentable state of affairs. :...

Thanks for the heads up Kieran, unsticking too early should not be a prob for me as due to the weight of the aircraft it will not fly until it is good and ready, I am going to do some taxi tests to ch...

This challenge thread is turning up some concerted efforts for the greatest speed, as I have nothing to compete with this I am going to tentatively nominate the Cub for the following "awards". Greate...

Gday All This thread is getting seriously funny, we will have to formalise the various "Booby" awards. Additionally... I'll have you all know Ingo turned up on Sunday with an aircraft that was seriou...

Hmmm May have to dust off my P40 for that challenge. Oddly enough the motor and ESC that power my glider originally came out of it. Cheers Rob B

Gday Kev I am hoping to get her down this weekend however I am not entirely sold on the fact that I have her optimally balanced. She was made for an IC engine so I have had to do the electric convers...

Gday Kev Thanks for the fleet feedback, I am chipping away at getting them all airworthy however being totally pedantic about motor choices etc etc. I will get over this one day and give Hobby King a...

G'day Kv Whilst trying to get my head around just how awesome a turbine powered Habu would be I realised I could make some enquiries on Monday to see if we have any jobs around for you at Flitech w...

G'day to our trio of 1st responders I will try to get some data up for those aircraft today. Note the Dx8 is not for sale, I am not doing a mh370 bolt from the hobby, more of a qantarse style reji...

Gday All Just a quick update from the corporate world of Rob B. End of Month reporting is complete, my teams KPI's and pay have been sorted. At this point in time I go into people mode and set up ...

G'day All Please be advised that due to the current circumstances of Robair Airlines a major restructure is required. The Robair Sale Act is creating a very uneven playing field in my garage and prec...

Gday All Apologies for the slow replies, next fin year budgets have been killing me here at work. John, i'll be speaking to you shortly. You can come over tonight if you like. Chris Mc, The s...

Gday All Sniper EP is now gone. I am now at the point where any ridiculous offer will be seriously considered. I HAVE to get my space under control ASAP, i.e last week, NOW etc etc Still to g...

Morning All Final push for the Robair sale.... Alphajet is now RTF, orange receiver and 4S 2650 batt included in the low low price of $60. See Gazz's comments earlier in this thread, this is a g...

G'day Steve and Mr T I am home by about 730pm most weeknights now my work is saner. Email address is in an earlier post, that is the best contact for me. See you when I see you Mr T and it will b...

G'day Gazz Good call mate. Alphajet now off the table and the sale is done and dusted. Cheers Rob b

G'day Steve and Mickey T Not sure when you guys are picking up your goodies? I am currently beer stocked and putting the finishing touches on my v tail glider rebuild. Life is indeed good. Will b...

G'day Steve Tonight is good, I'll be home soon after 7pm. Cheers Rob B

G'day All What is the only thing worse than a pilot? 2 pilots. You are at a party, how do you know if any pilots are present? Just wait, they'll tell you. A BA speedbird 747 had just landed...

That Banzuke is bloody funny. !!!! Some good and bad flying efforts in there. I'd be keen to try some Banzuke style commentary next time Andrew is down with his camera. :thumbup: A KV hand launch w...

Gday Andrew I would call a baton drop as stating "resume own navigation" or "you are leaving my airspace" Cheers Rob b

Mr JellyV Good to hear you are having a good time with the heli. They are infectious things. Following Daves comments I hazard that the esc is fritzy or you may have a dry solder joint somewhere. A ...

Don't sweat it Kev, my Living Room is routinely "reassigned" for more noble purposes. My daughters spare High Chair also makes a great temporary workbench. Cheers Rob B

Gday Kev It is a Piper J3 Cub ARF from Thunder Tiger, due to the crap weather I have had plenty of time to customise it. I am working on a full scale interior and have almost completed a scratchbuilt...

Gday Kev, don't let Kieran being a big chicken put you off. Covering is actually quite simple if you get the iron temp right and tack in the right places, I am happy to assist with this, also don't fo...

Gday Jonathan There a a few of us with DX8's, great tx, lots of functionality, compatable with DSM2 and DSMX. The SD slot lets you upgrade the firmware easily when "upgrades" are released. The tel...

Gday Dave I suspect that the dx4 can "smell" the hardcore futaba fumes that you emanate and reacts the only way it knows how, ie shitting itself and unbinding. Cheers Rob B

G'day Jonathan You need to have the same system as the pilot you are buddying with. So, a futaba tx will not buddy with a jr/ spectrum and vice versa. Dual receivers won't resolve that issue. J...
